Cookie Monster

So I made coconut cookies the other night for my primary class (and Drew's Teachers "did Sister Hafer make us any treats this week?"- I've created monsters) and I put a plate in the middle of the coffee table with all of the leftover ones on it at home. Drew and I were just sitting on the couch on our laptops and I look up and Valentine had snatched one of the cookies and was just standing there chewing and chomping away on it. As you can see she was having the time of her life and thought that the cookie was delicious and awesome (which it was). She was screaming and smiling and licking that thing for a long time- she's going to have a big sweet tooth just like her mom! (And yes that is a pipe cleaner in her other hand- her new favorite toy).

I totally want that recipe. Denise just taught a cooking class and told the girls she always has cocoanut milk on hand, and they asked what you do with it! Umm, eat it with everything! You can't teach an old dog new tricks. Anyways, tell V that she can't play with pipe cleaners! They aren't even a toy. Although Martha has definately got a pipe cleaner-toy craft up her sleve. And when I say Martha I mean Stewart. I was trying to be quick by saying Martha, but I ended up sounding like Rachel Ray saying EVOO, Extra Virgin Oive Oil. Just used the the whole word if youa re going to say it anyways!I hate her. Miss you!Sorry I'm crazy!

While cleaning up Valentine after she peed all over herself and my mom's couch-

Me: "Valentine!!! We do NOT go pee-pee in our underwear!!! You're a big girl, you know that!! We do NOT do that!!!!"

Valentine: (looking down) "It's not so terrible Mama." (looks at me) "It's not so terrible."

Me: "Yes it is, it is so terrible. Don't do it again."

Valentine: (looking down again muttering) "It's not so terrible Mama....."

Page: "You're gonna diiiie!"

Dad: "Do we use these, can I throw them out??"

Jordan: "Yeah you can throw them away we don't use them anymore...... but that one Dance Dance Revolution Pad has so many dear memories."

I started to nurse Moses while some of the family was around....

Merry "Drew, do you wish that was you?"

She has been on FIRE lately!

Jessie: "So, how was Page and Ted's honeymoon?"

Kasi: "Good, they said pretty much all they did was hang out in the hotel room and on the beach."

Merry: "And make-out."

Me: "Valentine, please stop doing that."

Valentine: "WHAT'D YOU SAY?!" (continuing what she's not supposed to do)

Me: "Valentine, that's enough!"

Valentine: "WHAT'D YOU SAY??!" (still doing it)

Me: "Valentine! Sto.."

Valentine: "WHAT'D YOU SAY?! WHAT?!" (still doing it)

Summer (addressing everyone): "So, if you could have a million dollars but could never use the internet again would you take it? Which would you rather have?"

Many arguments ensued about whether a million dollars is worth more than a life time's use of the internet..... after a few minutes we hear.....

Merry: "So, would you rather have food or sex?"

Silence.

Everyone: "What did you say Merry???"

"Did you just say sex?"

Nico: "She didn't, she said text."

Me: " No, she said sex."

Merry: "Uh, yeah, I say SEX."

Valentine: "Whoah Momma, she's so heavy!" (while holding Moses)

Valentine: "Happy Tine-tine's Day!" (on Valentine's day)

While Valentine is awake in her crib at midnight and being ignored by her annoyed parents: (yelling) "Momma?!........ Hey Momma?............ Mooooommmmmaaaaaaa!......... Daddy?............ Bicah?!................. ANYBODY!!! HEY ANYBODY!!!!!!!!"

Valentine: "Aw, come on!"

Kasi: "I was a creepy teenager actually."

Merry: "Um, Ted. Probably at my wedding I will dance with you third. First my husband, then my dad and then you."

Yelling from the other room-

Me: "Valentine?"

Valentine: "What?!"

Valentine: "Wight back!"
